Here's a web site with information on listening to signals from Jupiter.

http://radiojove.gsfc.nasa.gov/

They also have data from Jupiter and the Sun.



I piddle with this sort of thing once in a wile. Have you guys read
RadioScience Observing by Joseph Carr? Its a good read on the topic.


Can't say I have.

I've mostly experimented with listening to Jupiter.

The most effective antenna I've seen for this sort of thing is Yagi that
can be aimed anywhere in the sky using ropes. It's not much to look at,
but it works quite well. It was made by a friend, and is installed at
an observatory in Bethany CT.
